7 genius ways to upgrade your bedroom

I love my bedroom. I have been living in my home for around six years now, and in that time I have collected little bits and pieces here and there which have really served to make this space my own. I love nothing better than heading out to an antiques store on a weekend morning and spending hours wandering the aisles as I look for that perfect lamp or side table to match the decor. I know a few friends who have bedrooms that they are less than happy with – and I wanted to look at some easy ways to upgrade your bedroom so that you too can enjoy bedroom happiness!

Get some new lamps

A great way to brighten up your bedroom is to actually brighten it – with lights! Save some money on buying new lamps and bases, and simply pop in a new shade or revamp your existing one. You can work with the decor that you have already or you might like to move away from the traditional and embrace the unconventional. Whatever you choose to go with, make sure you’re bold and daring.

Get some new bed linens

There are few better feelings than slipping into bed on a cool autumn night and feeling the feels of your brand new, freshly laundered sheets. Truly, there are few better things in the world. To add a little bit of extra awesome – why not invest in a light throw in a light color? These kinds of things add a feel of luxury to your bed and will make all the difference.

Stock up on the pillows

If you don’t have good pillows, you should probably invest in a key couple that are your primary ones for sleeping. You don’t need more than two pillows for each person, either, and a huge array of pillows can be overwhelming – so be sure to keep it concise and aim for luxury and style, not fluffy overabundance.

Get a rug

You can tie a room together really nicely by popping a rug down on the floor. This makes for a really nice touch and is a great way to add some instant glamour to your place.

Invest in a reflective device

A mirror is a great way to add more depth and sparkle to your room. A full length mirror should be in the corner and a larger freestanding mirror could happily go in the corner of a room too, propped up for full effect.

Art is the best

Invest in some quality art or just buy some prints and pop them in a frame – either way it’s a great way to add some color and character to your walls. A possible option is to take some pictures that you have of friends or some pictures that you’ve taken and stick them up in an artsy pattern. Artwork is a great way to revamp a tired space and will make a huge difference to your bedroom.

Get a new mattress

There comes a time in every person’s life when it’s time to buy a new mattress! Whether your old one has just had it, or if you’re moving in with a partner and it’s time to buy one that works for your both – it’ll happen. You can shop online with people like Oz Mattress and ensure that you get the best possible deal, and this will make all the difference to your bedroom.

I hope that you manage to find the best possible way to make a change to your bedroom, and that you enjoy the process of revamping your space. Don’t forget to be bold and to make some brave choices – you’ll appreciate the point of difference in your home.
